Time in a collapsing world

Yae Sakura and Yae Ri made preparations at home, preparing food and drinking water for the next few days. They also covered their sister and Carol with a blanket, and then came to the entrance of the shrine, carried by Yae Ri. The wheelchair and two people walked down the long stairs.

"Brother, you are so strong..."

Both Yae Sakura and Carol had more or less seen the extraordinary qualities of Yae Ri. Only Yae Rin, who had been waiting in the room for a long time, opened his eyes wide and exclaimed in surprise.

"Really? Your brother is amazing."

Yae Li touched Yae Rin's head and looked back at the empty Yae Shrine.

I don’t know what kind of expression his father will show when he comes back and can’t find anyone.

"...?"

At the same time, Lord Yae, who was visiting a wealthy clan in Yae Village, frowned and felt the urge to sneeze, but he looked at the clan leader opposite and endured it.

"Lord God, what's wrong with your expression...?"

"No, it's nothing..."

……

Yae Ri and his party met the messenger who was sitting on a stone to rest at the entrance of the village.

The messenger was first attracted by the pink hair of the three brothers and sisters, and then he noticed the touch of gold mixed in it.

"Huh? Miss Carroll?"

The messenger looked strangely at Carol, who was sitting in a wheelchair and being pushed by Yaeli.

As a city man who works under the city lord, he has seen these Valkyries many times. He knows how powerful they are and how many monsters they have killed.

Therefore, he was a little curious about who beat such a powerful person to the wheelchair.

"Cough cough..."

Carol didn't know the other party, but the doubtful look in her eyes made her a little embarrassed. She coughed dryly and looked away.

"Let's go to the city and rest early."

Yae Ri spoke, looking at Yae Sakura's excited expression, and then at Yae Rin's two little hands that were constantly entangled, not wanting to waste time.

So the group of people left Yae Village and walked towards the big city.

Along the way, Yae Sakura kept holding the handle of the katana at her waist and looked around warily.

She remembered her brother's words and left it to her to deal with the monsters along the way.

Yae Ri chatted with Yae Rin and Carol, and sometimes asked the messenger walking in front for some news about the city.

Seeing Yae Sakura's tense expression, she said helplessly: "Sakura, don't be so nervous. Generally speaking, monsters don't come out during the day, especially on such an empty road."

Hearing her brother's words, Yae Sakura subconsciously let go of the handle of the knife, but immediately tightened her grip, "Brother, you said it was 'generally speaking', so you can't let down your guard."

"But you've wasted all your energy during the day, what are you going to do at night?"

"..."

Yae Sakura thought for a while, and then she let down 80% of her vigilance after being convinced by Yae Ri.

Soon, night fell.

At the request of the messenger who was really tired, Yaeli had no choice but to ask everyone to stop and spend the night on the roadside temporarily.

Pushing the wheelchair aside, Yae Ri cleared the stones on a half-height grassy area beside the road and smoothed them. Then he took Yae Rin out of the wheelchair and let her sit on the grass. At the same time, he also put the blanket on Covered her.

"Try it first and see if it feels comfortable. If you feel uncomfortable, I can lend you my thigh."

Yae Rin smiled and said that he didn't bring a pillow because he was worried that Yae Rin wouldn't be able to adapt to the empty feeling under his head.

"……Um."

Yae Rin originally wanted to say it was comfortable, but after hearing her brother say that he would lend her his thigh, he hesitated for a long time and nodded lightly with a blush on his face.

Carol staggered down from the wheelchair. Hearing the conversation between the two, he rolled his eyes and said, "Xiaoli, actually I don't feel very well either..."

"Go aside and lie down by yourself."

Yae Ri stroked Yae Rin's little pink-haired head on her lap and said speechlessly.

"Hey~ Xiaoli, look, I am also injured~"

"But you are not my sister."

"Didn't you always call me Sister Carol?"

"Okay, next time I will just remove the suffix."

"Forget it, forget it, there's no need, I won't lie down anymore..."

Carroll turned his attention to the other two people. The lonely messenger was too embarrassed to huddle with these "girls" and found a place far away to lie down and sleep.

Yae Sakura patrolled back and forth in the tall grassland to ensure that there were no monsters lurking before returning to them.

"..."

Yae Sakura glanced at her sister, who was resting her little head on her brother's lap, with a little envy in her eyes.

This bit of envy was keenly caught by Carol, so she turned her lower body into a kneeling position with difficulty, and then patted her thigh towards Yae Sakura, "Sakura, do you want to try mine? It’s also very comfortable to wear~”

"No need...Sister Carol, you are a wounded person..." Yae Sakura shook her head and refused.

"Then, Sakura, let me lie on your thighs?"

"..."

Yae Sakura looked embarrassed.

"Haha...just kidding."

Carol lay down sadly, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Anyway, with Xiaoli here, there is no need for her to guard the surroundings.

"elder brother……"

Yae Sakura walked up to Yae Ri.

“Shh——”

Yaeli put a finger to his lips.

Yae Sakura reacted and found that her sister had actually fallen asleep on her brother's lap, with a sweet smile on her lips, as if she had had a good dream.

Are my brother's thighs really that comfortable...

Yae Sakura's heart was itching, and the envy in her eyes almost overflowed.

"There's nothing going on around there, right?"

Yae Ri asked in a low voice, interrupting Yae Sakura's thoughts that gradually turned into random thoughts.

"...Well, it's safe around here now."

Yae Sakura nodded. Apart from the breathing sounds of several people, the only sound in her ears was the rustling of the grass in the evening breeze.

"Are you sleepy? If so, sleep next to me. I'll keep watch."

Yae Sakura shook her head, "Brother, you'd better sleep, I'm not sleepy."

"……Row."

After pondering for a moment, Yaeli agreed, closed her eyes, sat there, and fell into a light sleep.

Yae Sakura stared at her brother's face for a long time, and then sat down next to him, looking around cautiously.

She wasn't sleepy, but...her brother smelled so good.

Is it the scent coming from Sakura Fukiyuki?

About half an hour later, Yae Sakura's eyelids opened and closed. She felt that the smell of her brother had a hypnotic effect. She really wanted to fall asleep next to her brother...

She did the same, leaning her petite body against her brother's side, closing her eyes, and fell asleep peacefully just like she always did every night when she slept next to him.

Yaeli opened her eyes slightly, feeling the pressure from her sister around her, and smiled helplessly.

He said he was not sleepy...
